Family Reunions And Rental Equipment Online
By Haily Potts
The very idea of family reunions is intriguing because
you'll get to catch up with far-flung relatives you
haven't seen in years. "My how you've grown,"
will be heard echoing around the party, undoubtedly,
as kids grow taller and wiser.
You'll see family elders who look great for their age,
cousins who've changed their style, aunts who have just
returned from a cruise and other relatives who may have
lost a lot of weight.
It's always exciting to catch up, but sometimes it
can be awkward breaking the ice and starting up conversations
with people you've never met before. To get the party
started, you may want to consider family reunion rentals,
which can liven up the mood.
Renting Family Reunion Games
Games are a great way to get everyone organized, involved
and laughing at family reunions. The Game Show Guy (www.gameshowguy.com)
specializes in the rental of family reunion games like
Jeopardy, Family Feud, Deal or No Deal, Hollywood Squares
or Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader.
For $1,000 - $2,000, Detroit-native host Dan Nichols
will arrive with all the professional props and know-how
to run engaging, fun, TV-style family reunion activities.

alternative, then try DVD or table-top board games like

Who Done It Murder Mystery Event
Another one of the more clever family reunion ideas
is to organize your family reunion around a Murder Mystery
event. You can hire a theatre troupe to arrive at your
next event and get everyone involved in a comedic, intriguing
and entertaining "WhoDunIt" mystery.
Everyone, from young kids to the family elders, will
be able to enjoy this type of activity, which makes
it an ideal activity for family reunions. The Riddlesbrood
Touring Theatre Company (www.riddlesbrood.com)
will work with the family reunion planner to customize
the performance around your guests.
For $750, they can bring setting changers to transform
your backyard or home into the scene of a crime, costumed
actors, lighting, sound and video effects to make the
experience even more immersive. For the $1050 Deluxe
Package, they can also arrive with roving themed characters,
wandering musicians, magicians, stilt walkers, face
painters, balloon crafters and/or a DJ.
Renting Bounce Houses And Slides For Children
If there are a lot of young kids in your family, you
may want to consider family reunion rentals like bounce
houses or slides. Just about every city has this form
of rental, which keeps children busy for hours on end.
These rentals typically cost between $200 and $500
to rent for the day or to buy at www.nextag.com.
The benefit of renting is that you don't have to worry
about set up, tear down or even supervising the kids
when they're bouncing around. You can find a national
rental agency at www.moonwalkrentalsusa.com.

More Family Reunion Facts....
How can I plan for my family reunion?
Family reunions can seem like a
monumental chore to plan and implement but you can reduce
the stress and headaches if you take it step by step.
The first step is making contact with everyone. If you
do not have all of your family’s postal addresses, email
addresses or phone numbers…start getting in touch with
family members that do.
The next step is to start thinking
about when you want to plan your reunion. If you have
a large family and want to have the reunion outside
then you need to plan it during warmer months. The next
step is deciding where you are going to host the reunion.
Ideally a family member’s house
would suit the purpose but it all depends on how many
people are coming. A great money saving idea is to choose
a state or local park. Often you can reserve a pavilion
for very little money and there is always playground
equipment for the young ones to play on.
If you have family that is quite
a distance away and will have to fly in, you need to
make sure there are arrangements for that. They will
need a place to stay. It can be at a relative’s house
or a local hotel. If you buy a notebook or create a
program online, you can keep track of all the steps
you need to accomplish in order to have a great family
reunion.
